Nanoarchitectonics, like architectonics, allows the design and building of structures, but at
the nanoscale. Unlike those in architectonics, and even macro-, micro-, and atomic-scale …

Polymer shell microcapsules with liquid cores are used in a wide variety of industries, from
food and flavour protection to inkless paper. There is a number of production methods, each …

The layer-by-layer (LbL) templating technique has attracted significant interest as a simple,
highly versatile approach that has been widely used to prepare nanostructured materials …

Organic–inorganic hybrid hollow spheres are prepared by using a TiO 2‐stabilized
Pickering emulsion polymerization method (see figure). By self‐organization of TiO 2 …

We report the preparation and characterization of light-responsive delivery vehicles,
